Welfare Benefits advice

The Law Centre helps and advises with welfare benefits issues including establishing lawful entitlement, challenging decisions, maximising income, changing policy, representation and advocacy.


Appointments

We offer daytime appointments for advice in welfare rights.


Somali speaking drop-in sessions

A welfare benefits advisor holds drop-in sessions at the law centre every Wednesday morning between 10am-1pm for the Somali community. The sessions operate on a first come-first served basis and it is advisable to arrive as early as possible if you wish to be seen. We also provide outreach sessions for the Somali Community on Tuesday mornings at Wadajar and Thursday mornings at the Brady Centre. For up to date information about other outreach sessions contact our reception for more details on 020 7247 8998.
